silver

Today I found my first old coin. It is extremely worn out, you can barely make out the feature of queen Victoria, can't make out the exact date but anywhere from 1837-1901 as I did my research on the net.

Went out to the park for a couple of hours in the afternoon. Was just finding mostly junk (old shotgun shells, nails, cast iron). Only had a few minutes before I had to leave and got a GREAT signal under a large chunk of concrete. Underneath I found the quarter (1917 Type 2) with the dime...

Hey guys. So I posted some pictures of the relics and coins on found on a new field on Todays Finds and it became my most liked and commented post so far. I happened to bring my camera that day and I filmed the good finds as soon as they came out of the ground. So here's the video. You may find...

I've been hitting older locations with hopes of picking up some deeper/old coins, but the deepest I'm hitting is about 5in max. I did air tests supertuned and I'm getting 7 inches on a quarter in disc and 12 in AM. Considering the sites are mildly trashy, I feel AM might not be the easiest...

For me, I was dabbling in some coin roll hunting of pennies. Just a box or so every month. But, one day I peeled back the paper and saw a band of tarnished gray that is unmistakable. Silver! And I mean real silver, not just a clad dime that got mixed into the penny roll. I lifted it out by the...
